    • No quick restart options for arcade-style games like shmups
    • Games that end up being too easy once you unlock of figure out one mechanic or technique like dash-dodge or iframe rolling and now the entire game is just the same loop
    • Unskippable or long intros or cutscenes (I sold Guilty Gear Strive because of that eagle thing…)
    • The spam garbage ripoffs on the Nintendo eShop that shouldn’t be there
    • Code in a box
    • When DLC characters are visible on character select even if you didn’t buy them (looking at those 10 greyed-out characters on SF6 are so annoying)

  • Super Metroid will always be my favourite. I also enjoyed Axiom Verge and Bloodstained ROTN.

    I generally like shorter Metroidvania like Iconoclasts and some of the Shantae series or even Yoku’s Island Express which has some backtracking.

    The Metroidvania tag is a bit like Dubstep in music, a lot of those Dubstep tracks aren’t Dubstep but they can still be fun for some people.
